Leading Performers:

Coach's Quote:
"Last week we struggled all the way around, we were not very good at playing assignment football and tackling on defense"

"I thought our offensive line played pretty well (despite) we lost our starting center in play four, the young kids really stepped up and the seniors up front showed some leadership"

"We have really been focused this week on getting back to the basics, Freedom is a good team with a lot of athletes, they are well-coached and will be ready (and) we have to match their intensity and play with a lot of heart and effort"
